The message for the beloved Children of God is - Teach Me !

Good morning,
The message for the beloved Children of God is - Teach Me !
 
Holy Spirit, can you teach us how to pray? For we know not want to pray for as we ought, but your Spirit intercedes for us . Jesus was praying in a certain place, when one of His disciples asked Him to teach them to pray. Understand, the bible never tells us the name of the disciple, but we do know that He was watching Jesus. We see that at least one of the disciples was interested in learning to pray. Are we will to learn also? We have to understand that Jesus is the greatest teacher that lives.Understand that our will is not always God's will. John the Baptist taught his disciples how to pray also. Moses prayed to God , Abraham prayed , Lot prayed asking God to spare Him, and the Prophet Jeremiah prayed for God’s guidance and many more people in the bible prayed for God's help. Ask yourself, are your prayers focused on God's ways and His will ? We need to follow Him, Jesus prayed regularly and daily. Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. There was an widow that never gave up, she keep coming back to the judge. Read Luke 18:1-7, And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith. And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? There are two different words in scripture that are translated teacher, "Master" and "Rabbi." So, let us learn how to pray, Heavenly Father, let your kingdom come, let your will be done. Not our will, but your will Lord. We need you to guide us and lead us to the right path. We cry out to you Lord teach us, we cannot do anything without your power and your spirit. We need your godly wisdom, counsel, and direction. Let our requests be made known to you (God).Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
